League of Nations - Northwestern University Library

Northwestern University Library's digital collection "League of Nations
Statistical and Disarmament Documents" contains the full text of 260 League
of Nations documents. The League existed from 1919 to 1946. Although Russia
and the United States refused to join, its members included countries from
Africa, Asia, Europe and North and South America. The documents in this digitized
collection focus on three areas: the founding of the League, international
statistics published by the League, and the League's work toward international
disarmament. To promote peace and security, the League reduced national armaments
and prevented the manufacture of implements of war. Most of the publications
in this digital collection concern disarmament. For assistance with this resource,
